Decided I was using wrong approach to practice. Have a number of reeds and was using say #1 & # 2 in a practice session. If reed performed poorly I was wasting practice time and playing on poor reed trying to analyze or fix it and either not learning technique or improving reed or fingering etc. Had read reeds can be good sometimes and poor other times. So now setting a certain number of minutes practice time, using #1 & #2 reed, and if squeaks, jamming, etc, going right to next 2 reeds instead of continuing on with poor ones, and noting poor reeds. When\if next rotations shows reeds repeatedly poor, can set aside time to explore it. That way I continue to improve by playing on good reeds, do not waste practice time with poor reeds, and if same reeds continue to be poor, I can discard or try to fix them.
